I'm here again bc i just can't get wet sand out of my head. At some point, I already accepted that some people can't see this as a story for YW and TJ, sure, pov matters. But still, I wonder what could have been if the setup was started from their younger days, when TJ was desperate and anxious enough to join a gang so that he could protect both of them, especially yw, from the cruel world where everyone is heartless enough to let adults do whatever they want to youngsters, like drugging them and leaving naked in the bathroom, and how yw hopelessly fall in love with tj, and how he realized his feelings first, although TJ is the one who loves yw first, the first one to realize their own feelings was yw. and how tj tried to maintain his position in the organization, and started running away from his feelings for yw, and how he hurt yw so bad by doing so. and also, how tw started sleeping around, finding the warmth he wish he got from tj in other people, and finally how he run away as well. and last but not least, how yw still is seeking for that warmth in new people outside the gang he left, and how he almost found that warmth in Joseph. and how he can't move on from tj, how he still wants him desperately and helplessly, how he took Joseph words just to make up with tj, how he go get his earrings although he decided to leave the country in the end. and how he always, always choose tj. and how yw could let go of everything what he was doing, turn his back to everything and everyone, just because tj finally understood what he actually wanted and realized what he was doing. What YW wanted was crystal clear, I fear. This is a well written story. So I can't empathize with people saying this is bad. As toxic as it must have been, their relationship is complex and beautiful. .
